The Nordica Hell & Back Hike Pro Ski Boots are part of Nordica’s new sidecountry series aimed at advanced skiers who live for pow and aren’t afraid to invest a little sweat in the deal to find the line they want – whether by booting or skinning. Made with a 25% lighter high density polymer in both shell and cuff, an easy-to-use hike/ski mode that’s controlled by the top buckle, and a grippy high traction rubber sole, these boots will get you up there without sacrificing performance on the downhill.

Advanced-Expert

Whether you charge the steepest lines, carve with race-like precision, hit the biggest jumps or halfpipes; advanced to expert level skis/snowboards are for the more aggressive rider. You will often find the addition of layers of metal, carbon, bamboo, or other stringers in these. These features work to make a stiffer ski/snowboard with more power and rebound.
